Results show that the chromosome numbers of the two species fit 2n （♂） = 17 = 16 ＋ XO, in which three pairs of autosomal and sex chromosomes were terminal chromosomes, and the other five pairs of autosomes were metacentric chromosomes. These are diagnosis characters for Chorthippus. However, these two species can be distinguished by the different chromosome formula （CF） and the relative length （RL）. The CF in Ch. （M.） aethalinus is K （2n, ♂） = 6m ＋ 11t = 6L ＋ 6M ＋ 4S ＋ XO, whereas that of Ch. （M.） chinensis is K （2n, ♂） = 6m ＋ 11t = 6L ＋ 8M ＋ 2S ＋ XO. In addition, we also found that the relative lengths of sex chromosomes in the two species were different from each other. The sex-chromosome of Ch. （M.） aethalinus is located at the fifth position and its relative length is 8.33% whereas that of Ch. （M.） chinensis is at the eighth position and its relative length is 5.53%. These results show that significantly different genetic features exist for the two species of Chorthippus.展开更多

Inoculation of SDAU09C1 in ALV-free chickens induced antibody reactions specific to subgroup A or B. But gp85 amino acid sequence comparisons indicated that SDAU09C1 fell into subgroup A; it had homology of 88.8%-90.3% to 6 reference strains of subgroup A, much higher compared to other subgroups including subgroup B. This is the first report for ALV of subgroup A isolated from imported breeders.展开更多
